Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system

Chapter 57 Who says women are inferior to men 14

"Ding Jing, it seems that the person who was chasing you just now is not from Rong Di?"

"They are the remnants of the previous dynasty. The one who led the team to hunt us down was Wei Zijing's adopted son Wei Ying. The reason why Donghan chose to join forces with Rong Di was because Wei Zijing was the one who made suggestions."

"So it was him? It seems that these firearms were provided by Wei Zijing to East Korea."

"I originally thought that Wei Zijing cared about the people after all, but I didn't expect that this guy would collude with Rong and Di in order to restore the country. Has he forgotten the tragedy of the Wuhu rebellion in China? We Han people have spent so much effort to restore the country. How dare he drive the barbarians out of the Central Plains?"

"Why doesn't he dare? You really think that Wei Zijing is a descendant of the Wei family. He is just a barbarian bastard adopted by the Wei family. I, the Wei family, do not recognize him."

As soon as Qi Mingjing finished speaking, he was interrupted by a voice. Lin Jiu looked up and saw a young man in white suddenly appearing in front of them.

"who are you?"

Lin Jiu looked at the young man in front of him warily.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Wei Zifeng, and I am your cousin." Wei Zifeng said to Lin Jiu with a smile.

"Really? I, Lin Jiu, am alone, and I don't have any messy cousins."

"I know you don't believe it, but I have a token."

Wei Zifeng took out half a jade pendant and handed it to Lin Jiu.

Lin Jiu looked at the pattern of the jade pendant. She also had half of the jade pendant on her body. Lin Jiu took out her half of the jade pendant. When the two jade pendants were put together, there was a family emblem on the front and a guard in seal script on the back. Character.

"How about it? My cousin should believe it now, right?"

"The jade pendant is indeed real, but this person... that may not be the case."

As soon as Lin Jiu finished speaking, he took out the whip from his waist with his right hand and swung it at Wei Zifeng. Seeing this, Wei Zifeng quickly dodged and then started fighting with Lin Jiu.

The two people's martial arts methods are basically the same, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell that Wei Zifeng mainly avoids.

"Cousin, are you serious? Senior brother, explain to me quickly, or I will be beaten to death by my cousin." Wei Zifeng grabbed Lin Jiu's whip and said to Qi Mingjing, who was watching the excitement.

"Aren't you okay? Ajiu has a sense of proportion."

"Are you from the same sect? Is he your junior brother?" Lin Jiu stopped attacking and looked at Qi Mingjing in surprise.

"Although I really don't want to admit it, he is indeed my junior brother and your cousin. Junior brother, he only found out about his life experience when the master passed away. It's just that you went on a study tour with Mr. Xiurong at that time, and the master was very fond of you. Junior brother had other arrangements, so he didn't go to see you immediately." Qi Mingjing explained again, fearing that Lin Jiu might misunderstand something.

"Since the Sixth Prince has vouched for you, I will trust you for the time being." Lin Jiu wrapped the whip around his waist again.

"Obviously the people in the Wei and Lin families are very gentle, so why did a tigress come out?" Wei Zifeng muttered softly.

"What did you say?" Lin Jiu put his hands on his waist.

"No, it's nothing. I mean, junior sister, you are so beautiful. No wonder senior brother has been thinking about you."

"What are you talking about? How many people have you brought here this time?" Qi Mingjing changed the subject with a slight embarrassment.

"Not many, only about a thousand people. They are now distributed near Eduo Lake. As long as senior brother gives the order, there is no problem in going straight to the royal court." Wei Zifeng said with a proud smile.

"Ah Jiu, Ah Lan said that a lot of horses were captured this time?"

"Well, there are not only horses, but also a lot of firearms. If you want to sneak attack the royal court, you can pretend to be Wei Ying's firearms team." Lin Jiu threw the token he had collected before to Qi Mingjing.

"Ajiu, could you please take these injured brothers back to Dingyuan to recuperate." Qi Mingjing said solemnly.

"Okay, I'll take them back. I'll leave Dongping and the others to you. If you want to pretend to be a firearms team, you can't do it without Dongping and them. Moreover, Dongping was originally left to me by you, but you have also seen that I have the ability to protect myself. In addition, Dongping and the others were left to me. , remember to take medicine and change medicine on time. I don’t want to wait until you finally go to the royal court and die yourself. Wei Zifeng, A Lan, keep an eye on him. If you don’t listen, just knock him out. bring back."

"Don't worry, cousin, I will definitely keep an eye on him for you." Wei Zifeng said while suppressing a smile.

On the next day, Lin Jiu took some of his troops and the injured people back to Dingyuan, while Qi Mingjing and Wei Zifeng took the people Lin Jiu left him to join the people brought by Wei Zifeng.

"Your Majesty, you are back. Where is the general?" Guan Sheng felt uneasy when he saw that Lin Jiu had returned with some wounded people, but Qi Mingjing was not seen.

"General Guan, don't ask what you shouldn't ask. All you need to know is that the general is safe."

"The general has overstepped his bounds."

"Has anything happened recently?"

"Yunzhou sent a letter asking for help yesterday, but the prince and the general are not here. There is no transfer order, and the general will not dare to transfer troops without authorization." Guan Sheng replied honestly.

Lin Jiu immediately took out the token that Qi Mingjing had given her before and said: "Immediately integrate five thousand troops and horses to support Yunzhou and tell the Yunzhou garrison that Yunzhou must be defended no matter what."

"Yes."

Guan Sheng looked at Lin Jiu with hesitation.

"anymore question?"

"Your Majesty, can we bring some firearms?"

"Tingzhu."

"grown ups."

"Take General Guan to the military factory to get one hundred gunpowder packets."

"Yes."

Guan Sheng happily took people with Tingzhu to the military industrial camp to move things.

There was no war in Dingyuan. In addition to strengthening military training, Lin Jiu led a group of disabled veterans to dig potatoes.

These veterans are unable to continue on the battlefield due to their physical disabilities and can only do some logistics in the military camp.

As mentioned before, the current military system implemented by Da Qi integrates soldiers and farmers, so most of the land on the border is in charge of these veterans.

"Sir, are these edible grains? The yield is too high!"

"Well, this is called a potato. It can be eaten not only as a vegetable, but also as a staple food. Remember, you can only eat the brown root piece below. The sprouts on it are poisonous and cannot be eaten by humans, but they can be cooked. For livestock. Also, if the skin turns green or sprouts, it cannot be eaten."

"Sir, why can't the seedlings be eaten but the roots can be eaten?" asked the child who was busy picking potatoes in the field.

"Because potatoes want to protect themselves in this way. Think about it, if one day you vomited and had diarrhea after eating this leaf, and even almost died, would you still choose to eat it?"

"No." The child shook his head, and then said with a look of enlightenment, "I understand that when people find that eating its leaves will make them uncomfortable, they will naturally think that the potatoes below cannot be eaten, so that it can protect these Potatoes. When potatoes sprout, they turn into seeds. In order not to be eaten, the seeds will definitely produce toxins to protect themselves."

"But sir, is there a high-yield species whose leaves and roots can be eaten? These potato leaves can only be fed to livestock, which is too wasteful."
